Integrazione ESG

Engagement e voto

Allineare i principi di sostenibilità con la responsabilità fiduciaria

Riteniamo che una corretta attenzione agli aspetti di governance societaria, ambientali e sociali sia fondamentale per la creazione di valore nel lungo periodo, in pieno allineamento con il nostro approccio d’investimento fondamentale. In qualità di investitore istituzionale, il nostro dovere fiduciario consiste nell’agire sempre nel migliore interesse degli investitori e dei beneficiari, aiutandoli a cogliere il potenziale dei mercati per raggiungere i loro obiettivi.

Le nostre attività di engagement si concentrano sulle società che violano in modo grave e sistematico i principi del Global Compact delle Nazioni Unite o altre convenzioni internazionali relative ai diritti umani, al lavoro, all’ambiente e alla lotta alla corruzione. Crediamo che mantenere un dialogo costruttivo con le società in cui i nostri fondi investono sia più efficace dell’esclusione immediata dal nostro universo d’investimento.

Manteniamo inoltre un registro interno delle attività di engagement, che viene regolarmente presentato al nostro Comitato di Investimento Responsabile per la relativa revisione.

Le diverse forme di engagement

Un engagement collaborativo e mirato per un impatto duraturo

Riconoscendo il valore delle diverse forme di engagement, conduciamo sia attività di engagement collaborativo sia iniziative individuali con le società. Considerando le nostre dimensioni e il nostro focus, riteniamo che la partecipazione attiva a piattaforme collaborative rappresenti il modo più efficace per favorire il miglioramento delle pratiche di mercato. Siamo membri attivi di iniziative quali l’Institutional Investors Group on Climate Change (IIGCC), i Principles for Responsible Investment delle Nazioni Unite (UN PRI), CDP, l’Access to Medicine Foundation e Climate Action 100+.

All’interno di queste adesioni, identifichiamo e definiamo le priorità delle nostre attività di engagement collaborativo, mantenendo al contempo la piena responsabilità delle nostre iniziative di engagement. Pur facendo leva su tali piattaforme per le iniziative collaborative, non delegiamo le nostre responsabilità di engagement a terze parti.

Inoltre, realizziamo engagement individuali mirati quando emergono gravi controversie all’interno delle società. Se tali iniziative non portano ai cambiamenti attesi, il nostro Comitato di Investimento Responsabile può decidere di escludere la società dal nostro universo d’investimento.

Voto

Voto mirato in linea con i nostri principi di engagement

L’ambito di applicazione del voto è composto dalle società per le quali le posizioni aggregate soddisfano una delle quattro condizioni seguenti:

  1. sono detenute da fondi classificati Articolo 9 SFDR (sistematici) oppure da fondi Articolo 8 SFDR selezionati (decisione di voto caso per caso);
  2. valutazione qualitativa dell’importanza relativa del voto;
  3. richiesta ad hoc;
  4. requisiti previsti dalla normativa locale di mercato.

Questi fattori ci consentono di concentrare i nostri sforzi sulle posizioni che rappresentano una parte significativa del nostro patrimonio in gestione e di partecipare in modo efficiente ed efficace alle assemblee degli azionisti delle società in cui i nostri organismi d’investimento collettivo detengono una quota rilevante.

La nostra decisione di avvalerci di questo advisor si basa sulla convinzione che i servizi forniti — sotto la nostra supervisione — conducano generalmente a decisioni di voto per delega coerenti con i migliori interessi economici sostenibili delle nostre partecipazioni e, di conseguenza, dei nostri organismi d’investimento collettivo e dei loro investitori.

Condotta e attività aziendali

Il nostro approccio alle esclusioni e alla gestione del rischio ESG

Escludiamo le società quando rileviamo un rischio evidente che esse contribuiscano o siano coinvolte in questioni ESG che consideriamo dannose o potenzialmente dannose, in contrasto con i nostri valori o in violazione di leggi, norme o convenzioni internazionali. Queste esclusioni si applicano esclusivamente alle azioni quotate sul lato long dei nostri portafogli, anche se tali società possono essere shortate nelle nostre strategie alternative. Il carbone e il carbone termico sono esclusi sia dal lato long sia dal lato short.

La nostra lista di esclusioni combina le analisi dei provider esterni con la nostra valutazione interna. Una società può essere esclusa per uno o più motivi, e ogni decisione di esclusione è attentamente esaminata dal nostro Comitato di Investimento Responsabile. Applichiamo le esclusioni in due aree principali:

• Condotte aziendali controverse che violano norme internazionali o i nostri valori, come infrazioni ai principi dell’UNGC o alle Linee Guida OCSE per le Imprese Multinazionali

• Ricavi derivanti da attività dannose con impatti negativi sulla società o sull’ambiente

Le categorie considerate sono tre:

○ Armi
○ Prodotti e servizi al consumo
○ Energia e combustibili fossili

La nostra Exclusion Policy completa è disponibile su richiesta.
